This content is no longer actively maintained. It is provided as is, for anyone who may still be using these technologies, with no warranties or claims of accuracy with regard to the most recent product version or service release.

Retrieves the sign-in name. Not scriptable.

Syntax

HRESULT MySigninName(
   [out,
   retval] BSTR* pbstrName
);

Parameters

  • pbstrName
    Return value. A pointer to a BSTR that contains the current user's sign-in name.

Return Value

Returns one of the following values. For managed code applications, these return values are received in the form of a COMException.

  • S_OK
    Success.
  • RPC_X_NULL_REF_POINTER
    pbstrName is a null pointer.
  • E_OUTOFMEMORY
    The string comparison failed.
  • E_FAIL

This property fails if the local client is offline. This property does not recheck the user store for the current user's sign-in name. The value returned is the value entered on the client on the initial sign-in for this session, which is cleared when the current user signs out.

Example

string mySignInName = null;
try
{
    mySignInName = communicator.MySigninName;
}
catch (COMException MSCE)
{
    Console.WriteLine(MSCE.ErrorCode.ToString());
}
